GeneSync Functional Nutrition
Erin Gillespie, RHN
My Mission:
At GeneSync Functional Nutrition, I am committed to helping clients achieve their optimal health and wellbeing through personalized, functional, holistic nutritional coaching and wellness support. I have a special interest in how a combination of a simple to take genetic test (cheek swab dropped shipped to your door) and symptom questionaire analysis can provide you with an incredibly detailed and precise look at how to optimize your health. It is the closest thing to a "user's manual" to your body! While our genes are NOT our destiny, they can give clear guidance and clarify the root cause of your symptoms and the most crucial nutrients needed to improve your wellbeing now and in the future. Stay tuned for the "why" behind I feel so passionate about the potential this testing has to transform lives of all ages for the better and improve quality of life for ourself and our loved ones! Genetic testing is predicted to become mainstream in the next 2-5 years in Canada. Please note I always recommend you continue to work with your medical doctor.
The other stream I'm passionate about is Functional Nutrition, which is an offshoot of Functional Medicine. While I do not practice medicine, I do have training from both the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition(CSNN) as a RHN (Registered Holistic Nutritionist) and the Institute of Functional Medicine for Nutritional Practitioners. Please see a detailed description of this service or choose a combo of both streams for the most detailed, personalized support with a powerful combo of your invaluable genetic test results combines with a personalized Therapeutic Food Plan, including meal plans, recipes and a clear description of which Institute of Functional Medicine food plan is right for you!

It's possible, if addressed early enough to avoid symptoms caused by genetic tendencies from developing into metabolic syndromes / or disease states in the future. While similarly priced (and also valuable) tests offer a current "snapshot" of what could be causing symptoms or preventing optimal health and wellness, this Love My Health Pro test is an indispensable lifelong tool and reference guide that only needs to be taken ONCE. Obviously the genes we are born with are ours for life and insights into where our body could be malfunctioning, or may in the future is invaluable. It can take the guess work out of the cause of your symptoms and can always be referenced as your health evolves. The practical applications are endless! I will include the Feed my Genes add on as a less detailed but great resource for some meal planning and recipes targeted to your genetic results whether your choose the more detailed, IFM Therapeutic Food Plan add on as an option or not!
There is an option to choose the combo package of a personalized Institute of Functional Medicine detailed therapeutic Food Plan with your Love my Health Pro and Feed my Genes report (or your Brain Health or Ferlitily Report bundle). What is the advantage to this? There is a detailed colourful phytonutrient reference guide, detailed explanations on why the therapeutic IFM diet was the best fit for you and a more detailed recipe and meal planning package along with a colourful easy to use phytonutrient chart (it really breaks down phyto(plant) nutrients by vegetable and colour.
Functional Medicine, while unfortunately not as commonly practiced in Canada (compared to the US and Europe) yet, is a root cause approach to health. The Institute for Functional Medicine training for Nutritional Practitioners has both stretched my knowledge as a practitioner and provided me with a fantastic set of tools I'm excited to keep sharing! They teach clear guidance on how to select personalized Therapeutic Food Plans for clients based on current symptoms, health conditions & how to improve and optimize health. This stream is based on symptom analysis and health history. It also aims to prevent symptoms from progressing to metabolic syndromes by treating the root cause of what is not functioning optimally in your body. I hope this branch of medicine becomes more prevalent in Canada. In the meantime I am excited to share my knowledge as a Functional Nutritionist and am happy to collaborate with any medical practitioners you are under the care of.
